Add a focal point of deep spirituality and artisanal mastery to your home with this hand-carved wooden Crucifix from Val Gardena. The sculpture captures the culminating moment of the Passion with poignant realism, where divine suffering is manifested in every anatomical detail.
The Body of Christ, painted with pale, opaque flesh tones, shows the marks of flagellation, with delineated ribs and vivid red wounds. The head is bowed, crowned with thorns, and the expression of pain is vividly rendered by the half-closed eyes and slightly open mouth. The loincloth, draped with deep folds, contrasts with its finishes in deep blue and brilliant gold, recalling the royalty of the sacrifice.
The cross itself is a rustic and imposing work of art, with a finish that enhances its grain and stylized carvings, accentuating the raw character of the wood. The INRI scroll in gold leaf, with black writing, completes the work, drawing attention to the sacred message and offering a point of brilliance.
True to the South Tyrolean sculptural tradition, each piece is made with the highest quality materials. This Crucifix is made of maple wood for sizes up to 56 cm, an ideal choice for its fineness and compactness in details, and lime wood for larger sizes, ensuring lightness and stability for more imposing sculptures.
